@cmykevin The issue can be solved by updating the package. If you're using yay:
sudo yay -Syu
In case they have a problem render this can help them
from /share/applications/figma-linux.desktop
/opt/figma-linux/figma-linux --no-sandbox --enable-oop-rasterization
--ignore-gpu-blacklist -enable-experimental-canvas-features
--enable-accelerated-2d-canvas --force-gpu-rasterization --enable-fast-unload
--enable-accelerated-vpx-decode=3 --enable-tcp-fastopen --javascript-harmony
--enable-checker-imaging --v8-cache-options=code
--v8-cache-strategies-for-cache-storage=aggressive --enable-zero-copy
--ui-enable-zero-copy --enable-native-gpu-memory-buffers
--enable-webgl-image-chromium --enable-accelerated-video
--enable-gpu-rasterization %U
Leave it like this and it works better
/opt/figma-linux/figma-linux %U
Figma is unable to input text after an update. The fonts panel shows "No Fonts Found" but my font directories are still listed in settings, and I refreshed my font cache just to be sure. Running Figma from cli yields the following output:
xdg-settings: default-url-scheme-handler not implemented for xfce

I'm also running into issues inputting text in stale Brave windows, so maybe there's an underlying issue with Chromium
No problem. ^^
@WideVader That fixed it, thank you!
For the fix you can either remove the --enable-webgl-image-chromium flag from /share/applications/figma-linux.desktop file or you can just copy the Exec command from upstream: Exec=/opt/figma-linux/figma-linux %U
Can y'all fix the .desktop file please? I can't launch the app from rofi...
I'm using wofi, yes you're right, it works launched in the terminal
